Spontangärung - Festival

Kitzeck im Sausal

Installation in the Buschenschank

The Story: The authors immerse themselves for three days, from September 1st to September 3rd, 2025, in the landscape and people of Kitzeck and Sausal, including a tasting of spontaneously fermented Lorenz wines. Otherwise, the authors can do as they please. This way, they can gain the best impressions they need for their literary, spontaneously fermented texts. The texts will be read by the authors on September 3rd, 2025, at 7:00 PM in the Buschenschank of the winery.
Regarding Wolfgang Temmel: “Spontaneous Fermentation.” Multiple, edition of 25 numbered, signed bottles.

Why at the Lorenz Winery?
Because the winemaker Michi Lorenz exclusively vinifies spontaneously fermented wines that are also organic and/or demeter. In plain language: Michi Lorenz is a RRRadical winemaker; otherwise, the spark wouldn't jump.

The reading lasts a maximum of 60 minutes, with a break.

The readers are:

Laura Freudenthaler (Vienna) (Latest award: Industry Prize 2023)
Xaver Bayer (Vienna) (Austrian Book Prize 2020)
Cordula Simon (Graz) (Rotahorn Literature Prize 2012)
Mike Markart (Stainz) (various awards and wine expert)
Martin G. Wanko (Graz) (various scholarships, awards, and more.)
